Chapter 81: Descending to the Grassroots
Yun Xi won't pay much attention to this group of women who are not good-looking; Besides, even if they are good-looking, Yun Xi won't see it much, and he didn't come to see the beauty today. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He saw through the situation of these people along the way, and saw that their lives were quite good. The government paid for the repair of their houses, and the military salaries were paid on time, and there was absolutely no case of deducting military salaries. And the upper twelve guards are different from the other guards, they don't have to farm their own land, so the family has free time. The family population is really large, and the daughter-in-law can do some needlework and sell out, which can be enough for the family.
Yun Xi passed by Chen Xing and Yang Feng's houses one after another, and looked at them without entering. After walking a few more steps, he walked to a house that looked older, and a guard behind him, named Qin Nan, stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, my house at this time. ”
Yun Xi asked, "I remember that your family is a hereditary thousand households, why is the house so old?" ”
Qin Nan said with a sad face: "Your Highness, although my family is a hereditary thousand-family, my father fell ill on the battlefield and is not in good health; That's it, but one year a bastard came out of nowhere, saying that my father's illness could be cured; At that time, in order to cure my father's illness, my family spent all their family savings, and owed a lot of debts, but it was not cured later. The money that the family owed at that time has not been repaid yet, and there is still money to repair their house. ”
After listening to him, Yun Xi immediately said, "Why didn't you say this situation earlier." How much money is owed? At the same time, he motioned for Wang Bu to take out the money bag.
Qin Nan said: "This is all my family's own fault, how can I accept the favor of His Highness." Yun Xi asked him repeatedly, but he just repeated the sentence.
At this time, Yang Feng said: "Qin Nan, Your Highness cares about you so much, you can accept it." Your Highness, the Qin family owed a total of 200 guan money at the beginning, and after all these years, there are still 80 guan money that has not been paid off. ”
Yun Xi wondered why Yang Feng came out to say this, and asked Wang Bu to take out the money and give it to Qin Nan. Wang Bu took out twenty yuan and ten taels of silver and handed them to Qin Nan. Qin Nan could only take it.
Yun Xi knew that Wang Bu only had this money with him, so he said to Qin Nan: "I only brought this money today, and you can take your brothers to Heyan Village to get two hundred stones of grain back." ”
Qin Nan wanted to excuse himself again, Yun Xi's eyes widened, and Qin Nan could only accept it.
They were waiting at the door, and out of the door came two beautiful and lovely-looking twelve or thirteen-year-old girls. As soon as the two of them came out of the door, they were startled when they saw such tall men standing at the door. The one who looked older recognized Qin Nan, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Qin Nan: "The eldest cousin of the Qin family, why do you stand at the door of your house and not go in?" He said to Yang Feng again: "Cousin of the Yang family, these are your friends!" ”
Yun Xi was suddenly surprised. Although these two little girls are good-looking, he is not surprised by their beautiful appearance, after all, there are many beautiful women in the palace; It's that they look almost identical, except for the difference in height, there is almost no difference in the others.
Qin Nan replied vaguely: "My cousin has some things to do and don't go home for the time being, just passing by here." Then he said to them, "Why are you here?" Also, why is there no one to accompany you, what if something happens! ”
The older one replied, "Aren't you still in debt at home?" My father wouldn't give you the money to pay off your debts, so we did some needlework for my aunt to pay off her debts. This is the inside of the workshop, what else can happen? ”
Qin Nan didn't want to say much to them, but said: "Don't do this in the future, even if you are in the workshop, you have to bring your subordinates out together." ”
The man said impatiently, "Got it! Cousin Qin! We'll be sure to pay attention to it later. ”
At this time, Yun Xi said: "Brother Qin, since you are worried about your cousins, let's just send them back by the way." ”
Qin Nan actually had this intention, but he was embarrassed to say it. Now Yun Xi took the initiative to propose, and immediately replied happily: "Thank you Sun Gongzi for your forgiveness." Then he turned to his cousins and said, "Let's go, I'll send you back." ”
Yun Xi was also inconvenient to talk to the little girl, so he asked Qin Nan to accompany them to the end, and he asked Yang Feng, "Are you still related to Qin Nan?" Just found out today. No wonder you came forward to tell Qin Nan's family about the debt. ”
Yang Feng replied: "Your Highness, the minister's mother, and Qin Nan's mother are sisters, all of whom are the hereditary thousand households of the Jinwu avant-garde, and now the sister of Xue Ning, who is the commander of the Jinwu guard. ”
Yun Xi asked, "Is this Xue Ning a member of Huan Xianggong (Note 1)?" ”
Yang Feng said: "Your Royal Highness, the minister's uncle is indeed a member of Huan Xianggong's clan, but he is only a distant relative, so he has not received much favor from Huan Xianggong; When Huan Xianggong chased Hu Weiyong's remaining party, he did not affect the minister's uncle. ”
Yun Xi was thoughtful. Yang Feng was afraid that Yun Xi would misunderstand his uncle who disliked the poor and loved the rich, and said: "Your Highness should have heard what my two cousins said, in fact, my uncle is not a person who hates the poor and loves the rich; In fact, when Huan Xianggong chased Hu Weiyong's remaining party, many close clansmen were implicated, only his family was fine, so many people came to his house to fight the autumn breeze. Uncle can't turn them all away, so he has to help them a little, so although he is in command and knows the same knowledge, life is also tight, but fortunately this is the capital, not their hometown, which is better. ”
Yoon-hee nodded to indicate that he understood. This is another person who has been involved in the family. There are pros and cons to the existence of the family, and it is not good to say that it is a bad thing, depending on how most people in the family are.
Later, the sister of the Xue family also secretly asked: "Cousin Qin, who is this 'Sun Gongzi', I don't think it's an ordinary friend!" ”
Qin Nan said: "I said Sister Yao'er, don't ask around." ”
However, she still didn't give up, and asked, "Could it be the son of a lord's family?" The surname is Sun, I think it should be who. ”
Qin Nan couldn't interrupt her thoughts, so she could only go.
After a while, they arrived at the Xue family's mansion. Qin Nan watched the Xue family sisters enter the door.
At this time, Yun Xi had already walked through the whole workshop, understood the general situation, and saw that the sun was already in the west, and it would take some time to get from here to Miyagi, so he didn't wait for them to come up and ask, so he said: "Let's go here today, don't go back, go back to the palace." It's not worth it tonight, so let's go home, and you don't have to send me back to the palace gate. ”
How could the others have any different opinions, but it was a coincidence that these people were on duty today, so they all escorted him back to Miyagi until Donghua Gate.
